Jason Voorhees vs. Michael Myers: Why I Don't Think This Halloween Fight Is All That Close

Michael Myers is stronger than any normal human and incredibly hard to kill, but an undead Jason may be a problem he simply can't solve.

Jason Voorhees versus Michael Myers: who wins? I think Jason Voorhees wins, and while this might be the iconic Halloween fight, I really don't think it's all that close.

Michael is way stronger than a normal human and ridiculously difficult to kill, but that's still not enough to beat Jason Voorhees.

Michael Myers is way stronger than a normal human and ridiculously hard to kill

Michael Myers is way stronger than a normal human. He has lifted people completely off the ground with one hand, crushed skulls, punched through doors, and even shoved his thumb straight through a guy's head.

Killing him is ridiculously difficult, too. Michael has been stabbed, shot over and over again, fallen from buildings, and been set on fire. In Halloween Kills, an entire mob beats him down, shoots him, and stabs him. Then Michael gets back up and ends basically all of them. But you know what? That's still not enough to beat Jason Voorhees.

Jason Voorhees became an undead monster in Part VI

Once Jason gets resurrected in Part VI, he's not just some giant guy living in the woods. He's an undead monster. Jason can crush skulls with his bare hands, rip people apart, and throw grown men around like they weigh nothing.

Then, in Jason Takes Manhattan, he punches Julius one time and literally knocks his head off his body.

Michael's real problem is figuring out how to kill Jason

The bigger problem for Michael isn't even strength. It's figuring out how he's even supposed to kill Jason. Michael can hit him or stab him all he wants, and it's not going to do anything.

In Freddy vs. Jason, Jason gets stabbed in the eyes, has his fingers cut off, gets impaled multiple times, gets blown apart by an explosion, and eventually loses an arm. He's still fighting.

For the first time, Michael Myers would face something bigger, stronger and tougher

Michael Myers can try and give it a good fight here, but for the first time ever, he's fighting something bigger and stronger and tougher than him, and that's just not going to work out too well for him.

Jason Voorhees wins.

Who do you think would come out on top in a fight between Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers?
